Balule lodges

Balule Lodges

The "Big 5" Balule Game Reserve shares an unfenced border with the Klaserie Reserve (and is part Greater Kruger National Park), wildlife flows unhindered between the Park and reserves.

The wildlife and birdlife experience in the Balule is up there with many of the other private reserves surrounding the Kruger, with the game sightings along the Olifants River a particular highlight.

To get the full Balule experience, we recommend at least a three-night stay.

All the lodges and camps that we have on offer pride themselves on service and hospitality all the while providing game drives and walks as part and parcel of one's safari.

Below is our hand-picked selection of Balule safari lodges and camps all located within this private protected area of South Africa.
